Stackable chair with or without armrests
Kova is a stackable chair that combines wood and metal in a sophisticated way. Rear legs made from tubular steel are elegantly fitted in holes that are shaped in the wooden frame. Front legs are joined with beautifully finished, durable finger joints. The ingenious encased structure makes the chair light yet sturdy looking and, above all - easy to handle.
The Kova collection comprises chairs with and without arms and several styles of wooden tables for e.g. conference and hospitality applications.
